Microsoft - First Anti-spyware Now Anti-virus ! Microsoft to produce an Anti Virus Suite

Recommended Posts

I posted alot of this before that Microsoft is forcing themselves into the antivirus market aggressively by intergrating their security products into Windows Security Center and forcing everyone to update their computers to SP2 (which might not be true) but if they're doing it this way, it won't be fair to antivirus vendors.Microsoft can at least allow their users to opt out of it but this is a large blow to the antivirus market.Shares in Symantec have lost a third of their value from highs seen late last year, while McAfee's stock is down by a quarter.These are only two of the major players in the antivirus market and what will happen to other low profile vendors whom we like like AVG?
